Electric Potential Inside a Non-Conducting Sphere
What is the electric potential inside a 2.5-cm-diameter non-conducting sphere with a total charge of 2.5 mC distributed uniformly throughout its volume?
A 2.5-cm-diameter non-conducting sphere carries a total charge of 2.5 mC distributed uniformly throughout its volume. The electric potential inside the sphere can be calculated using the formula: V = (3/2) * (k * Q * R^2) / (R^3) Where: Given: Substitute these values into the formula and calculate the electric potential: V = (3/2) * (9 × 10^9 N m^2/C^2) * (2.5 × 10^-3 C) * (0.0125 m)^2 / (0.0125 m)^3 = 400 V Therefore, the electric potential inside the sphere is 400 V.Calculation of Electric Potential Inside a Non-Conducting Sphere
